Parsnip Fries

 I love making fries with different types of vegetables-parsnips are my new favorite. We've used sweet potatoes, carrots, butternut squash, and even rutabegas. All my kids have loved these, and they're really simple.



Here's a picture of a couple parsnips. You'll need about 5 or 6good-sizied ones for a full batch of fries. Peel and cut them. Toss them in a bowl with a little olive oil and salt and pepper. You can use any type of seasonings you want-I used fresh thyme on these ones. Spread on a greased baking sheet and bake at 400 for about 30 minutes, turning halfway through.

Here's a small batch finished. They're good plain. We've also dipped them in a homemade yogurt dip and ketchup:)
